Description:

Camp Cooper facilities haven't changed since the 1970s. Today, we are excited to announce the first phase of a complete transformation of Camp Cooper. In spring 2021, we aim to begin construction on an eco-friendly bathroom and shower facility, along with a solar-shaded outdoor classroom. We need to raise $500,000 to fund these improvements; $225,000 has already been secured, and a local philanthropist will match the next $100,000 in donations. This means we are more than halfway there, but we need your help!Field Trip UpdateTeachers and parents, we want you to know that we have temporarily postponed conducting in-person field trips until it becomes safe to do so.  We miss seeing you at camp! In the interim, you may wish to schedule a Virtual Field Trip with our educators. Virtual Field Trips Tracking Bobcats Near Camp Cooper Dec. 10, 2020 Wow!
